Welcome to TSF

Nice first post. Seems you have done your homework and attempted many ways to resolve your problem. I am answering because your post as been unanswered for almost 24 hours. Unfortunately, you may be right and that there may be something wrong with the item. Maybe that's why it was on Ebay. The only thing I see in the manual that you did not mention was running 'windows update' to get the latest updates available. But it sounds as if Windows is recognizing the item and installing the correct drivers, since it appears in 'device manager' correctly. Your only recourse may be to attempt to get Samsung to take it back in exchange for a new one. Or find someone with a computer that the thing works on, and sell it to them. Sorry I don't have a better answer for you
Those things look pretty cool tho
